• Like the output feedback resistors, the final input feed-
back resistors were chosen to be standard values using
an iterative process. The V

work section were used to validate the selections:

• For greater charging voltage accuracy, it is recom-
mended that 0.1% tolerance resistors be used for the
output feedback resistor network.
